UFOs

I have a confession to make.  I have a PILE of unfinished sewing projects in my back room.  I think I get stuck on a project when the next step seems too hard, or I just get a bit bored with what I'm sewing.

I have made a promise to myself that I will spend the rest of this year finishing off unfinished sewing projects and NOT start anything new.

Just for the record, here's my list...

Take in Barcelona skirt (I made this just after I had Sadie, it's WAY too big) - DONE at last sewing day.
Alter Purple knit dress so it's not so long in the body (nearly finished this at the last sewing day, just have the hem around the armholes to go).
Do the binding on Sadie's Peter Rabbit quilt - this has become a UFO out of fear.  I put so much work into the top that I'm scared I'll stuff up the whole thing when I bind it.  I just need to bite the bullet and do it.
Finish my silver/pink long satin dress (need to make the bodice lining and put the whole thing together).
Make Sadie's denim dress (it's cut out, but that's all).
Take in two of Damien's t-shirts (I've done one so far).

Now it's on record I'm trusting you ladies will help me stay committed and stop me if I try to sew anything new!

Happy sewing,
Mel
